does affirmation help , doing it for others?

I am doing affirmations for my friend, i am mentioning his name while doing so. . we want to manifest a home so i just iamgin myself and him in that home although my mental picture of home is different, like i don't stick to one home, whenever i browse the interent i just find some images of home and imagin us together , i try with different types of home. am i doing correctly?

I would also suggest writing down an accurate description in your own handwriting in a journal or even on a piece of scrap paper and put it in a place in full view so you see it each day. The three step process for me is:

Not to be Debbie Downer, but remember who is in control of whose life. I am of the opinion that you cannot manifest for someone else. I think what you are doing is what a good friend should do, but in reality your friend is the only person who is in control of your friend.

The only way I see this manifesting for you is if you focus on you and somehow come up with the means to help this friend, and that is if you truly believe that is what you should do.

In the end this is just my opinion, but I just thought I would throw it out there. Hate for this not to lead somewhere and you lose faith in the power that you have as a person when it comes to you.

You stated that it's your intent to live with this person in a house. This is your dominate thought. Your vibration is not so much as to the type of house or else you would have a solid visualization as to the exact style of house you want. Therefore your dominate intention will come into reality. You already have sent out your intention to the Universe and every thought you have has this intention as a base from which to grow from.

My suggestion is to expand that base to include the perfect relationship in which to cohabitate. Trying to say affirmations for this person has more to do with controlling the situation for your yourself rather than your friend. Now is the time to allow your friend to manifest what it is that they want as well. It's also time for you to state verbally what you will accept in a house and what your will not then let it go. Let go of the house and let the universe deliver something that matches your vibration. This sets you free to mentally fulfill your dominate intent and not clutter it up with things that are really not that important to you.
